Gears of War 4 Bench Thread

Just depth of field to insane then? no others?

Also "Screen Space Reflections".

I've noticed in the benchmark summary Kaapstad posted it doesn't show the depth of field listing. I take it there will have to be someone with a benchmark score higher than the usual using the same GPU to detect the inconsistency?. I know it's questioning a users integrity but there have been instances where people have bent the rules in the past (hence the tessellation screenshot of the cobbles in Heaven".
 
Cool pics, I'll add a score here once you put the settings requirements up.

4790k @ 4.5
Fury pro @ 1130/500

Radeon Software Version
16.10.1

1440p

Unfrigginbelievable, I tried to boot the game up and it said an update is needed and now it won't install the update, I keep getting an error message after a few minutes of downloading, I've made multiple attempts. Lord Give me strength. I just want to game......

Have read about the workround in the link

Yeah I saw that from his benchmarks, his instructions need updating
 
Not even 30fps at 4k with a 1080... but the thing is, there's none with AMD cards on this thread yet. I've heard an RX 480 owner arguing they get 90+ FPS on 1440p ultra.

Bit off thread, so if mod wants to delete please do so. Had the game running since Friday, but wanted to test my new 1080 on it, and ran into the same problem. This is what I found out to get everything to update:

  • Update windows to latest patch. If you don't then you will be prompted to download the WHOLE game again
  • Once installed, go to windows store and download patch. It will be about 387MB but the progress bar will not really move
  • You MUST have at least 73Gb spare on the drive where you installed GoW4 (see next point)
  • If you look at your winapps folder then it will effectively download the update needed, then copy the previous version and merge, with the pre update folder then delete.
  • The progress bar in the store represents the status of the folder copy, not the download
  • Pretty certain this is the case as when it was happening, there was not throughput on my ethernet, but disk was going crazy

A lot of people running into problems as they weren't Win 10 v.222 or above (I updated last night and that took me to .321).

Hope you get it updated. Will have to get my benches up soon

Close the game once the store has opened, I had the same issue.

Ah, I wish I'd thought of that or read this earlier, I ended up uninstalling this morning and I'm now halfway through a fresh install on another drive. I live and learn, Thanks :)

Thanks, Hopefully doing a fresh install will of solved the problem for me.

Doubtful, I posted my results with every setting as high as possible in the other GOW4 thread and with a stock clock Fury pro I can manage a 65 fps average at 1440p.

Here's mine, only at 1080p/ultra for now though. Will test in 1440p and 2160p when I get home and have access to better displays.

5820K at 4.4GHz, 32GB DDR4 2400MHz, GeForce 1080 - haven't overclocked it at all but from memory it turbos to 1.9GHz. Using the 373.06 drivers.


However, that was just with the default Ultra preset so this isn't really useful for any comparison - my bad :) Will test again later with the two insane settings.
